Collavini Merlot

[Botafogo]

I have NO problem with it (we often look for the most offbeat packaging we can find, our current favorite is Serenelli Trave Rosso Conero which looks like an armor piercing artillary shell), I was just pointing out that the generalizations about uses of different shapes almost never apply in Italy.

Where in Italy do you live? We sell over a thousand Vini Italiani from Arneis to Zibbibo and from Aosta to Pantelleria...

PS: with 30,000 wineries and over 200,000 wines in Italy is YOUR personal knowlege of a thing that much of a guide to quality? The wine in question is a label made for us by a very distiguished cooperative as an export label from Nero d'Avola and Frappato, provides excellent value at $4.99 and is hugely popular with young ladies...

Fabio, you can ask Dino Illuminati or Enzo Mecella or Comte Cesare Salis or Josko Gravner or Gianni Venica or Enrico Abbona or Francesca Planeta or Marco Caprai or Roberto Stucchi or Attilio Pagli or Ampelio Bucci or Marilisa Allegrini about our selection. They have all been in and are proud to be represented by our enoteca..... BUT, we are more interested in finding the NEXT big thing so we keep beating the bushes.
